(8) Cabinet Resonance
Drag
While the fundamental sound of an acoustic piano is produced by vibrating strings, transmitting energy through a spruce soundboard,
the cabinet of the instrument itself also contributes a variety of subtle tonal characteristics that enrich the playing and listening
experience. The keybed, inner and outer rim, iron plate, and beams all play a role in disseminating sound energy, which in turn gives
the piano a living, breathing quality.
The digital piano recreates these natural acoustic characteristics, with the Cabinet Resonance setting allowing the volume of this
resonance sound to be adjusted.
Value
Description
Off
Cabinet Resonance will not be applied to the selected sound.
1
A small amount of Cabinet Resonance will be applied to the selected sound.
10
A large amount of Cabinet Resonance will be applied to the selected sound.
CHECK
This setting will not be displayed when the “SK-EX Rendering” piano sound variation is selected.
(9) Key-off Effect
Drag
When playing an acoustic piano – particularly in the bass region of the keyboard – if a key is played with force and released quickly, it
is often possible to hear the faint sound of the damper touching the strings immediately before the vibrations are stopped.
The digital piano recreates this phenomenon, with the Key-off Effect setting allowing the volume of this sound to be adjusted.
Value

Off
Key-off Effect will not be applied to the selected sound.
1
A small amount of Key-off Effect will be applied to the selected sound.
10
A large amount of Key-off Effect will be applied to the selected sound.
(10) Fall-Back Noise
Drag
When playing an acoustic piano, it is often possible to hear the faint sound of the keyboard action returning (i.e. “falling back”) to the
neutral position after a key is released.
The digital piano reproduces this sound, with the Fall-back Noise setting allowing the volume of this sound to be adjusted.
While the default value is intended to simulate the natural volume level of the keys as they return to their neutral position, it may
occasionally be desirable to adjust the volume of this sound. For example, reducing the volume when playing very soft pieces, where
the fall-back noise may become too prominent.
